  Correction: APHET stands for Armor Piercing High (not Heavy) Explosive Tracer. (Thanks hasamanda3687)<br>Engineering Kit and Fortified descriptions are wrong and the 30% recoil reduction applies also when you&apos;re standing.<br><br>THIS JUST IN: True Grit (Warhammer 40K armour passive) will give +20 ergonomics (bumping it to 37 instead of 47 from Peak Physique) BUT will also add +30% reload speed for support weapons. This is an amazing addition for the Autocannon users and will be especially noticeable when making a full reload.<br><br>Extra tips: <br><br>- If you&apos;re using flak, I don&apos;t recommend walking towards the direction of the explosion if it happens very close as it will increase your chances of getting hit by your own flak.<br>- Binding quick ammo switch is pretty much mandatory to make full use of the weapon. (I use middle click)<br>- There is a use for aphet rounds with lower tier enemies, and it&apos;s usually when they&apos;re closer than the flak range but not too close that you&apos;ll injure and ragdoll yourself with the explosion. Sometimes melee or weapon switching are the better choice. Another use is when you&apos;re assisting a teammate and don&apos;t want flak to kill them, though be careful not to ragdoll them because that will get them killed lol<br><br>Resources used: My own footage and the Helldivers Wiki (both of them!)

  Before I start great video man. As someone who’s been since day one I haven’t a video and a channel inspire to go to a weapon in awhile like this one. Thank you man! <br><br>When Arrowhead added an extra firing mode to both the Recoilless and the Autocannon I was so stoked and them adding and added dimension to these already good weapons was dope. <br><br>Also, the addition of the Supply FRV has made the Autocannon and backpack support weapons EVEN MOREEE fun. Being able to use these weapons while being able to resupply yourself and play a role also in supplying your own team as well is just great!<br><br>To broaden the topic of this video even further outside of just Autocannon I do think it and other backpack support weapons like it still have a bright future. We are getting armors from the Warhammer warbond that will take backpack support weapons to another with increased reload speed and better handling and we as said in one of their blog posts about the future of the game they want to update the team reload system and make it so you can team reload other players without having the same weapon or back pack. <br><br>It’s a really good time to be a backpack support weapon user right now and I’m excited for what changes with these weapons in the future honestly :)

  Finally someone made a video showing how OP the Autocannon actually is. If you run Autocannon + Supply FRV you’ll literally drop every other Stratagem it handles almost everything.
